Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
The worst may come the worst may go
Not without our say so
And you can stomp on me and I can stomp on you
All the world is on a tightrope
Long enough to give up hope
And you can stomp on me and I can stomp on you
You can stomp on me and I can stomp all over you
'Cause we will surrender
At the sight of frozen hell
We will surrender
On the last ring of the bell
Well, if you wanna stomp on me
I'm gonna stomp on you
If you wanna stomp on me
I'm gonna stomp all over you
We will surrender
At the site of frozen hell
And we will surrender
On the last ring of the bell
We will surrender
At the site of frozen hell
And we will surrender
On the last ring of the bell
Not without our say so
And you can stomp on me and I can stomp on you
All the world is on a tightrope
Long enough to give up hope
And you can stomp on me and I can stomp on you
You can stomp on me and I can stomp all over you
'Cause we will surrender
At the sight of frozen hell
We will surrender
On the last ring of the bell
Well, if you wanna stomp on me
I'm gonna stomp on you
If you wanna stomp on me
I'm gonna stomp all over you
We will surrender
At the site of frozen hell
And we will surrender
On the last ring of the bell
We will surrender
At the site of frozen hell
And we will surrender
On the last ring of the bell

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
